Greater Gainesville Young Professionals to launch with event on February 3
The Greater Gainesville Chamber is proud to announce the upcoming launch of Greater Gainesville Young Professionals! The Greater Gainesville Young Professionals is officially launching on February 3 with an event at Tech Park, next to Hotel Indigo in Celebration Pointe.
The Greater Gainesville Young Professionals is a group of individuals in the Greater Gainesville community between the ages of 21-39. This engagement opportunity will be available to all employees of Chamber organizations for free. Their focus of the program is personal & professional development, creating & strengthening relationships, investing in the community and exploring our beautiful region.
We aim to achieve this through our four pillars – Connect, Thrive, Strive and Discover:
- Connect – Providing opportunities for our young professionals to connect with their peers to create and build relationships in our community
- Thrive – Providing opportunities to encourage individual growth within our young professionals in order to ensure that they thrive not only in our community but also in their personal and professional lives
- Strive – Providing opportunities for philanthropy as well as civic engagement within our community in order to encourage young professionals to become involved and invested in our region
- Discover – Providing opportunities to encourage young professionals to explore and become better acquainted with our region so that they may discover what makes them love Greater Gainesville
“We hope to bring our region’s young professionals the best of every opportunity in a collective strive for excellence. I’m so excited to take this journey with a strong group of inspired individuals.”– Soly Schrack, Chair
While Greater Gainesville Young Professionals is a benefit to all who participate in the organization, it also benefits local organizations by helping retain talent in the region through opportunity for camaraderie, allowing young professionals to build professional relationships and creating leads on emerging talent coming out of business school.
